Writer, director and producer Anees Bazmee expressed shock and sadness as the news of veteran actor and director Satish Kaushik having passed away after suffering a heart attack, was shared on Thursday.
Paying tribute to Kaushik in conversation with mid-day.com, Bazmee said, "I met him last month and we spent hours together, shooting for `The Kapil Sharma show,` along with Indra Kumar. I knew him for a long time and he featured in my film `Swarg` as a character called Airport, someone who never got the travel by an aeroplane. We had recently made plans to meet again so this news has come as a big shock. It`s a big loss to the industry and my condolences to friends and family."
